On June 28, 2005 the City Council will be considering adoption of some revisions to the Town Center zoning district which would allow a.maximum 25-foot front yard setback. Ali of thc proposed units meet the front yard setback requirement with the exception of several of the units in Block 6, though the majority of the building is within 25 feet of the sidewalk. A slightly different sidewalk alignment may be necessary to accommodate this setback.
